Diary of an Israeli Shill

How the Masters of the Universe Infect the Internet

—

An Ex- Shill

—

I am writing here to come out of the closet as a paid shill. For a little over six months, I was paid to spread disinformation and argue political points on the Internet. This site, xxx, was NOT one that I was assigned to post on, although other people in the same organization were paid to be here, and I assume they still walk among you. But more on this later.

I quit this job in the latter part of 2011, because I became disgusted with it, and with myself. I realized I couldn’t look myself in the mirror anymore. If this confession triggers some kind of retribution against me, so be it. Part of being a real man in this world is having real values that you stand up for, no matter what the consequences.

My story begins in early 2011. I had been out of work for almost a year after losing my last job in tech support. Increasingly desperate and despondent, I jumped at the chance when a former co-worker called me up and said she had a possible lead for me.

“It is an unusual job, and one that requires secrecy. But the pay is good. And I know you are a good writer, so its something you are suited for.” (Writing has always been a hobby for me). She gave me only a phone-number and an address, in one of the seedier parts of San Francisco, where I live.

Intrigued, I asked her for the company’s URL and some more info. She laughed. “They don’t have a website. Or even a name. You’ll see. Just tell them I referred you.” Yes, it sounded suspicious, but long-term joblessness breeds desperation, and desperation has a funny way of overlooking the suspicious when it comes to putting food on the table.

The next day, I arrived at the address – the third floor in a crumbling building. The appearance of the place did not inspire confidence. After walking down a long, filthy linoleum-covered corridor lit by dimly-flickering halogen, I came to the entrance of the office itself: a crudely battered metal door with a sign that said “United Amalgamated Industries, Inc.,” (sounds like “Urban Movers”).

Hasbaras like the ‘war’ thing – Something genetic

I later learned that this “company” changed its name almost monthly, always using bland names like that which gave no strong impression of what the company actually does. Not too hopeful, I went inside.

The interior was equally shabby. There were a few long tables with folding chairs, at which about a dozen people were tapping away on old, beat-up computers.

There were no decorations or ornaments of any type: not even the standard-issue office fica trees or plastic ferns. What a dump. Well, beggars can’t be choosers.

The manager, a balding man in his late forties, rose from the only stand-alone desk in the room and came forward with an easy smile. “You must be Chris. Yvette [my ex-co-worker] told me you’d be coming.” [Not our real names]. “Welcome. Let me tell you a little about what we do.”

No interview, nothing. I later learned they took people based solely on referral, and that the people making the referrals, like my ex-colleague Yvette, were trained to pick out candidates based on several factors including ability to keep one’s mouth shut, basic writing skills, and desperation for work.

We sat down at his desk and he began by asking me a few questions about myself and my background, including my political views (which were basically non-existent). Then he began to explain the job.

“We work on influencing people’s opinions here,” is how he described it. The company’s clients paid them to post on Internet message boards and popular chartrooms, as well as in gaming forums and social networks like Facebook and MySpace. Who were these clients? “Oh, various people,” he said vaguely. “Sometimes private companies, sometimes political groups.”

Satisfied that my political views were not strong, he said I would be assigned to political work. “The best people for this type of job are people like you, without strong views,” he said with a laugh. “It might seem counterintuitive, but actually we’ve found that to be the case.”

Well, OK. Fine. As long as it comes with a steady paycheck, I’d believe whatever they wanted me to believe, as the guy in Ghostbusters said. After discussing pay (which was much better than I’d hoped) and a few other details, he then went over the need for absolute privacy and secrecy.

“You can’t tell anyone what we do here. Not your wife, not your dog.” (I have neither, as it happens.) “We’ll give you a cover story and even a phone number and a fake website you can use. You will have to tell people you are a consultant. Since your background is in tech support, that will be your cover job. Is this going to be a problem for you?”

Cutting the heart out of the Internet – Industrial deception

I assured him it would not. “Well, OK. Shall we get started?” “Right now?” I asked, a bit taken aback. “No time like the present!” he said with a hearty laugh.

The rest of the day was taken up with training. Another staff member, a no-nonsense woman in her thirties, was to be my trainer, and training would only last two days. “You seem like a bright guy, you’ll get the hang of it pretty fast, I think,” she said. And indeed, the job was easier than I’d imagined.

My task was simple: I would be assigned to four different websites, with the goal of entering certain discussions and promoting a certain view.

I learned later that some of the personnel were assigned to internet message boards (like me), while others worked on Facebook or chatrooms. It seems these three types of media each have different strategy for shilling, and each shill concentrates on one of the three in particular.

My task? “To support Israel and counter anti-Israeli, anti-Semitic posters.” Fine with me. I had no opinions one way or another about Israel, and who likes anti-Semites and Nazis? Not me, anyway. But I didn’t know too much about the topic.

“That’s OK,” she said. “You’ll pick it up as you go along. For the most part, at first, you will be doing what we call “meme-patrol.” This is pretty easy. Later if you show promise, we’ll train you for more complex arguments, where more in-depth knowledge is necessary.”

Organized like an Espionage Operation

She handed me two binders with sheets enclosed in limp plastic. The first was labeled simply “Israel” in magic-marker on the cover, and it had two sections .

The first section contained basic background info on the topic. I would have to read and memorize some of this, as time went on. It had internet links for further reading, essays and talking points, and excerpts from some history books.

The second, and larger, section was called“Strat” (short for “strategy”) with long lists of “dialogue pairs.” These were specific responses to specific postings. If a poster wrote something close to “X,” we were supposed to respond with something close to “Y.”

“You have to mix it up a bit, though,” said my trainer.“Otherwise it gets too obvious. Learn to use a thesaurus.”

This section also contained a number of hints for de-railing conversations that went too far away from what we were attempting.

These strategies included various forms of personal attacks, complaining to the forum moderators, smearing the characters of our opponents, using images and icons effectively, and even dragging the tone of the conversation down with sexual innuendo, links to pornography, or other such things.

“Sometimes we have to fight dirty,” or trainer told us. “Our opponents don’t hesitate to, so we can’t either.”

The second binder was smaller, and it contained information specific to the web sites I would be assigned to. The sites I would work were: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, and a handful of smaller sites that rotated depending on need. As stated, I was NOT assigned to work xxx (although others in my group were), which is part of the reason I am posting this here, rather than elsewhere.

I wanted to post this on Godlike Productions at first, but they have banned me from even viewing that site for some reason (perhaps they are onto me?). But if somebody connected with this site can get the message to them, I think they should know about it, because that was the site I spent a good 70% of my time working on.

The site-specific info in the second binder included a brief history each site, including recent flame-wars, as well as info on what to avoid on each site so as not to get banned.

It also had quite detailed info on the moderators and the most popular regged posters on each site: location (if known), personality type, topics of interest, background sketch, and even some notes on how to “push the psychological buttons” of different posters. Although I didn’t work for xxx, I did see they had a lot of info on your so-called “WATS” posters here (the ones with gold borders around their edges). “Focus on the popular posters,” my trainer told me.

“These are the influential ones. Each of these is worth 50 to 100 of the lesser known names.” Each popular poster was classified as “hostile,” “friendly,” or “indifferent” to my goal. We were supposed to cultivate friendship with the friendly posters as well as the mods (basically, by brownnosing and sucking up), and there were even notes on strategies for dealing with specific hostile posters. The info was pretty detailed, but not perfect in every case.

“If you can convert one of the hostile posters from the enemy side to our side, you get a nice bonus. But this doesn’t happen too often, sadly. So mostly you’ll be attacking them and trying to smear them.”

At first, like I said, my job was “meme-patrol.” This was pretty simple and repetitive; it involved countering memes and introducing new memes, and didn’t demand much in-depth knowledge of the subject. Mostly just repetitive posting based on the dialogue pairs in the “Strat” section of the first binder.

A lot of my job was de-railing and spamming threads that didn’t go our way, or making accusations of racism and anti-Semitism. Sometimes I had to simply lie and claim a poster said something or did something “in another thread” they really hadn’t said or done

I felt bad about this…but in the end I felt worse about the possibility of losing the first job I’d been able to get since losing my “real” job.

For most trolls – It’s an empowerment thing.

The funny thing was, although I started the job with no strong opinions or political views, after a few weeks of this I became very emotionally wedded to the pro-Israel ideas I was pushing.

There must be some psychological factor at work…a good salesman learns to honestly love the products he’s selling, I guess.

It wasn’t long before my responses became fiery and passionate, and I began to learn more about the topic on my own. “This is a good sign,” my trainer told me. “It means you are ready for the next step: complex debate.”

The “complex debate” part of the job involved a fair amount of additional training, including memorizing more specific information about the specific posters (friendly and hostile) I’d be sparring with. Here, too, there were scripts and suggested lines of argument, but we were given more freedom.

There were a lot of details to this more advanced stage of the job – everything from how to select the right avatar to how to use“demotivationals” (humorous images with black borders that one finds floating around the web). Even the proper use of images of cats was discussed.

Sometimes we used faked or photo-shopped images or doctored news reports (something else that bothered me).

I was also given the job of tying to find new recruits, people “like me” who had the personality type, ability to keep a secret, basic writing/thinking skills, and desperation necessary to sign on a shill. I was less successful at this part of the job, though, and I couldn’t find another in the time I was there.

After a while of doing this, I started to feel bad. Not because of the views I was pushing (as I said, I was first apolitical, then pro-Israel), but because of the dishonesty involved. If my arguments were so correct, I wondered, why did we have to do this in the first place? Shouldn’t truth propagate itself naturally, rather than through, well…propaganda?

And who was behind this whole operation, anyway? Who was signing my paychecks? The stress of lying to my parents and friends about being a “consultant” was also getting to me. Finally, I said enough was enough.

A lot of Israelis and Jews do it for free – The rest for the money, and they have a lot of money to spend on this.

I quit in September 2011. Since then I’ve been working a series of unglamorous temp office jobs for lower pay. But at least I’m not making my living lying and heckling people who come online to express their views and exercise freedom of speech.

A few days ago I happened to be in the same neighborhood and on a whim thought I’d check out the old office. It turns out the operation is gone, having moved on.

This, too, I understood, is part of their strategy: Don’t stay in the same place for too long, don’t keep the same name too long, move on after half a year or so.

Keeping a low profile, finding new employees through word of mouth: All this is part of the shill way of life. But it is a deceptive way of life, and no matter how noble the goals (I remain pro-Israel, by the way), these sleazy means cannot be justified by the end.

This is my confession. I haven’t made up my mind yet about whether I want to talk more about this, so if I don’t respond to this thread, don’t be angry.

But I think you should know: Shills exist. They are real. They walk among you, and they pay special attention to your popular gold-bordered WATS posters. You should be aware of this. What you choose to do with this awareness is up to you.

Phishy… real phishy. Jim Dean, please explain your comment:

“Sharky dude, You’re a troll. Not a good time to play the card on a piece like this. I am going to report you to your boss to cancel that bonus.” (Some editing done for clarification)

So you, Jim, are ‘above’ Sharky and can affect his ability to get a bonus in his clandestine ‘intel’ op?

Again and and again, JD and GD admit this as an “Intel” site. Yet, we all keep taking the bait. This is ALL completely public. “Intel site” indeed. Please explain what an “Intel site” is, precisely?

Love it. Precisely.

Iklwa October 14, 2012 at 5:47 pm

And who exactly does “Ex-Shill” believe he/she/it/they are kidding?

Come on!
If you can’t even put a name to an article on such a highly regarded, widely read web-site like this, how are we expected to give any credence to the missive?

I have only been reading here for a short time and I realize this is n anti-Zionist publication but Geese, give me a break. Even the democrat party gives me enough credit for not being THAT stupid.

sharkey October 16, 2012 at 5:41 am

This is my problem with this site. At first, genuinely reporting, now, a mouthpiece of their “sources”. Anything that gets legs or traction is always taken over by the Handlers e.g., Tea Party, Anti War, Occupy etc…

Brian October 14, 2012 at 11:25 am

See the short video:

Israel educates Zionist trolls to manipulate online content

Check this out (Actual current web page).

Rapid Response Team

The PANDA Rapid Response team is the answer to the Mainsteam Media propoganda machine. Many people in America today are already online nearly 24/7 with Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, etc. Now we can harness that for liberty. If you have a computer, 5 minutes of free time a day, and an email address, you can join the Special Information Team of the Internet.

Here’s how it works:

1. Lamestream Media releases article on TSA, DHS, NDAA, Etc.

2. PANDA sees wrong information, outright lies, and untruths.

3. PANDA Alerts the Rapid Response Team, and sends you a mission

4. Rapid Response Team writes comments at the bottom revealing the truth, and alerts others to do the same.

5. American Public looks at comments, realizes truth, and WAKES UP!

Join us, and do your part in defending America from Tyranny:

Items marked with * are required
Why are you against the NDAA?* __________
Branch of Service* __________
Unit* __________
Current/Latest Rank* __________
First and Last Name* __________
Email* __________

The police state dangers of the NDAA are real, but there is much more. The NDAA is a very typical piece of gamesmanship in DC. In lobbying circles, they call it a “fund-raiser,” a phony law that is put on the books to (1.) raise money to oppose it (if there is no enemy, then there is no fundraising.) Example: The NRA drafts anti-gun legislation, bribes to get this legislation entered, then puts out a mailer and ad campaign. But (2.) is far worse: the phony law is used to manipulate opposition groups, so they can be bamboozled into shooting themselves in the foot. With NDAA, through bringing back the 10th amendment issue of “nullification,” the goal is to create states that are run by the mob, where the “feds” won’t be able to interfere; keep the boot of health care companies on your neck, outlaw unions, end workplace safety rules, force cuts in pay for nurses and teachers, credit card interest regulation, mortgage regulation, pharmaceuticals, fracking…

Now who would be behind something like that?

Raptor October 14, 2012 at 5:19 am

Jim,

agree on the reading between the lines, for some of us it’s automatic, like a reflex in you will. Yet some questions are sometimes even better. So that said, how is it that such a lame piece ended up on the VT board? Just curious is all. I’ve seen this movie before on a much more sophisticated level. One run by the friendly folks at Cornell…an official American apologists Institute, one of many in my humble opinion.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m pro USA…….Only that would be the good old USA, if in fact it ever truly existed in the first place. : )

Thks,

Zionist shills – the ubiquitous scuttling cockroaches of the Internet.

Eddie October 13, 2012 at 4:10 pm

Yeah me too thought the article is a sublte propaganda effort from the hasbara fraternity, even before I got to the end.

The give away, as has been pointed out, is the writer declaring his undying love for Israel despite all the scummy tactics he had to employ that ulimately played with his conscience. If you notice, the writer doesn’t go into specific detail of the tactics given to him in the notes. If he was really that disgusted with what he’s been doing, should he not tip us off by giving us the details? Otherwise what’s the point as we already know the shills are there. And, if he loves Israel so much, why is he writing an article to undermine their propaganda efforts?

It appears the Israelis are self conscious of the public being aware of them sending paid agents onto websites to spew pro-Israeli garbage (jeesus, you can spot them a mile away). So to counter that, this article pops up. I suspect the character in the above article is fictitious and was created at a brain storming session at one of the many PR companies the Israeli govt likes to keep busy.

Leif Oldhart October 13, 2012 at 4:07 pm

This is a worthwhile article because people like this do exist and most of us have seen them at work, whether as part of an organized effort or alone. Don’t you think the ADL et al offer stipends to nice Jewish Zinonistas to monitor various forums, news groups, and threads? The money certainly exists to make payroll and it’s got to be some of the best-spent money ever, for this evil cause.

Do any of you recall some years back when an apparently young Zionist shill managed to cause Sam Francis to close his famous free speech forum by shilling it up and dragging enough people down to his level that some very nasty things were said, which were then pointed out to S.M., causing him to close down his forum in disgust? The shill in question bragged once that his “gramps” had told him all about the glory of raping and murdering German women when he and the Red Army took Berlin. “Gramps,” he informed us, now lives a nice life in public housing here in the US of A, on your dime. This was, of course, not a case of mercenary shilling. That guy was a dyed-in-the-wool Hasbarat.

REALITY CHECK October 13, 2012 at 1:50 pm

Why is my other post being rejected? I’ve tried three times to get it up here…

They pick up on words like w/e/b/s/i/t/e or site names perhaps. It then goes through moderation, have noticed that myself

REALITY CHECK October 13, 2012 at 1:48 pm

Repost: I post with this same moniker on Yahoo everyday, and I speak from firsthand experience with Hasbara shills. Regardless of the author’s motivations or intent, this is a by the numbers accurate description of their internet tactics. I’ve been doing this almost 2 years and have been targeted as public enemy #1 by the Hasbara trolls. I’ve been subjected to smears, lies and “ganging up on” tactics daily for the entire time.

And it doesn’t end on the internet. They discovered my real life identity and make harassing phone calls at all hours of the day and night. They spam my email after signing me up to franchising websites. They post my name, address and phone # on a daily basis..They post the names of my children, family members and friends they took from Facebook (before I locked it down), and have even created Yahoo IDs with my name and photo, and use it to post pro-Israel messages.

These people have no shame..no ethics..no principles…NONE. They are capable of anything…as long as it benefits Israel..Zionism or Jews.

Chris October 14, 2012 at 5:53 am

With the purple heart avatar right? Ive thumbs upped many of your posts. I post under the same name “Chris” on Yahoo and have seen you often. Nice work.

Yeah that’s him and your posts are gr8 too. I post as desertbloomdenier.

Chris October 14, 2012 at 8:47 am

Thanks man. I’ll keep an eye out for you. Yahoo comments sections are depressing but every now and then I see a post from an informed person and it restores a bit of my hope in humanity.

REALITY CHECK October 14, 2012 at 3:49 pm

Thanks Chris..Rico and I are members of an ultra secret rapid response team to try and keep the hasbara hypocrites in check. If you’d like to join us (or anyone else for that matter) in that effort, let me know ..pucky480 at yahoo…

REALITY CHECK October 13, 2012 at 1:33 pm

By the way…how many of you are aware that Frank Luntz, Republican political consultant and strategist, is the author of the original “Hasbara Manual”..aka “Hasbara handbook”?

Chris October 13, 2012 at 1:49 pm

I didn’t know that. I know a lot about Luntz and his media exploits(lies) but never heard that. That is very interesting. He always was very proficient at lying big with a straight face. Thanks for that bit of information Reality Check.

REALITY CHECK October 13, 2012 at 1:27 pm

Regardless of the author’s motivations or intent…this is an accurate description of the hasbara tactics on the internet. As one who posts everyday with this same moniker on Yahoo Mid East and political threads, I’m intimately aware of these strategies and tactics. Smears and lies are their stock in trade. I myself have been targeted by hasbara trolls as public enemy #1 going on two years. and the harassment doesn’t end with the internet.

They discovered my real life identity and harass me with obnoxious phone calls..spamming my email, and posting my name, address and phone # on a daily basis. They also post the names of my children, family members and friends they found on Facebook (before I locked it down). They’re definately patrolling this website and have taken comments of mine posted here and reposted them on the Yahoo threads.

These people have no ethics or principles..NONE. They are capable of anything..as long as it benefits Israel, Zionism or Jews.

LC – we are told by the European observers in Russia at the time – that the vast majority of the ‘Kommissars’ that were given ‘fiefdom’ areas of Russia to Lord over like dictators after the 1917 coup d’etat – were jews from the lower east side of new York.

Mayer Lanskey obviously decided to stay in the US to make a living from death there – whilst these wandering opportunist gangsters answered the call to murder Russians in their tens of millions in order to fulfill their Messianic and Talmudic dream of a world run by them.

Russia was meant to be the base for an assault on the rest of the world. Today no so called ‘intellectuals’ seem keen to admit that both the Poles and the German Abwehr intelligence services knew what was going on in Russia. Little wonder they re-armed and were very keen not to be swallowed up by the bolsheviks.

DaveE October 13, 2012 at 7:49 am

Word of mouth recruitment, constantly moving to avoid detection, endless formulaic “talking points”, constantly claiming to be something you’re not, constant reinforcement that YOU are being persecuted for merely telling the “truth”……..

How Jewish can ya’ get?

juana October 13, 2012 at 7:09 am

This article should have been the topic , rather than the centerpiece. I think Gordon got taken. I had already read it before and dismissed it a subtle intel propaganda. By printing it as if it’s real, it becomes a type of trojan , telling us what we want to hear, yet rationalizing it’s subtle lies as truth. The fact, as already noted , that the “blogger” says he remains pro-israeli is the giveaway . And we already know this is their strategy , yet some might be convinced to ignore this strategy if somehow they were seen as being “right” by someone who was an insider and knew their immoralities, yet continued as a believer. And if I’m wrong…let the author show his face. Gordon…I’d dish this in a Ohio minute !

Lot’s of over reacting here. You folks are forgetting that half of VT’s traffic each month is new readers. We are not a club,

Even after all of this time I find most folks have no idea that shilling is done on an industrial scale and huge amounts of money are spent on it. ‘

This is an intel site, and one of our constant themes is prepping new readers to read between the lines. If the older readers don’t like that, it just means the new readers coming in are not a concern. Understood.

So the deal is we should be unconcerned because you are, or because the material is not ‘new’? Forget that.

sharkey October 13, 2012 at 9:51 pm

As a reader of VT, I do not foward it to any of my associates. I see what you print in your disinfo and direct my friends to worthy news rather than this piece of crap. VT is a barometer of the bull$67t that will be coming in the future. Once vetted, then dispursed tro the masses.

Sharky dude (below), You’re a troll. Not a good time to play they card on a piece like this. I am going to report you to your boss to cancel that bonus.

You forget this is an Intel site and catching you guys is like shooting ducks in a barrel. We use stuff like this to train the young folks. Thanks for the live action help.

Let me give you a little hint dude. Anonymous people do not trump people who use their names. Never. It’s like the stork does not bring babies and there is no tooth fairy. We all just have to accept it at some point in life.

End-it October 13, 2012 at 6:53 am

Most of the time VT publishes a good read. but this is BULL$hit. I shill for Israel so now I’m pro Israel? Why because it’s easy to put your faith in lies instead of truth?
Poor Israel every body is picking on them so i must support them. i think I’ll go out and beat up a Palestinian that will make me feel like an Israeli. Even better I’ll beat up a kid and shoot it’s mother like the persecuted Zionist I should be! Poor me!

Raptor October 13, 2012 at 5:19 am

Matt,

Nice catch, well put. Trial balloons stick out like sore toes, or bad breath…lol
I once made a comment about a site and it’s head man in charge…wrote many things for one of the sites this author did mention above…GodLike pros….lol…..nailed him to the cross so to speak…..did so by suggesting that he was more than one person………….how could that be possible?…well it was just illustrated in the above post. No one, and I mean no one knows as much detail about soooooooooooo many different things and much less the capacity to defend and deflect any and all comers solely on their own. These people are easy to spot and the most glaring is knowledge….beware of those who know too much about too many different topics. Chances are above 99% that those are shills running in packs of 4-5 different people who use the same account on the web sites they infect.

Is this guy real? You’re very wise with your suspicion.

Excalibur October 13, 2012 at 4:45 am

Insofar as israeli shills are concerned – I would hope that the US, British and all western intelligence services pay particular attention to this article. This is a standard jewish zionist operational procedure – which was done by word of mouth long before the telephone was invented. It involves a tiny minority interfering with natural politics, real history, and the public opinion of their host country – while at the same time deliberately suppressing the genuine views of anyone suggesting a way forward that they do not like. It is not ‘advertising’ – it is subversion with ill intent – pure and simple.

Democratic countries not only require but also NEED the voices of everybody in order to proceed and advance themselves. Having all matters of policy misdirected and hijacked by a ruthlessly self serving and criminal band is NOT in the interests of ANY host country.

For those who are accustomed to listening to people and interviewing them to sift truth from lies – and to assess honesty and accuracy from B.S. – I hereby throw down a challenge:

Listen to this (non-zionist) jewish gentleman, the late Mr Aaron Russo, then tell me if you think he is genuine or he is lying:

In my opinion every word he is saying is true and genuine. Sometimes all you need to do to assess honesty is to simply look at the MAN who is saying it. Like I said – every member of the security services should watch and digest this account from the late and great Aaron Russo. Then make the necessary enquiries – and work out the necessary action needed in the national interest.

You hit the bull’s eye Excalibur. What are the FBI and the DHS waiting for to investigate how UNAUTHORIZED foreign agents are interfering with public opinion, delivering chicken feed made in Israel, in order to mislead US and World citizens?

What is described here is a true COVERT Op on US soil, using fake facades and perverting US citizens in distress, in order to promote a False Image of the Criminal state of Israel, putting the American People at odds with the rest of the world.

mpennery October 13, 2012 at 4:37 am

Interesting and obviously we already know such people infect most sites.
But….I have an observation…the author said he was indifferent about Israel before the job and then pro-Israel. He admits he was peddling propoganda and was so disgusted with himself that he quit because he couldn’t push lies anymore. Yet he kept his pro-Israel stance after. Hmmm. Sounds like successful brainwashing. Or this is more of the same shilling, just more subtle. “I was employed by the devil, quit in disgust because I was selling lies but when I was done I decided to accept the lies as my beliefs” (because I’m so noble for coming out of the closet and so I must be trustworthy and Israel must have been the one right thing about what I did). Uh huh. Makes perfect sense.

That’s my impression….How the hell can anyone with a conscience be pro-Israel?!! They’re the epi–center of Judeo-Masonry and Luciferian evil…organ/human trafficing..an artificial country created through relatively recent, uninvited immigration, terrorism, massacres, ethnic cleansing…Destroying other’s homes and olive groves for sheer enjoyment….

When I read stories about a USBP agents killing a 16 year old Mexican drug mule by shooting him in the back 7 times with an assault rifle for “throwing rocks” I wonder if this isn’t really an Israeli colony.

The kid either due to economic neccessity or possibly even extortion trys to move a backpack full of pot accross the border and gets killed for it. And ICE’s protocals allow lethal force for rock throwing I wonder where I heard that before???? At least the IDF and the Rabid Zealot Settlers would have just cut off his arm!

End the War on Some Drugs and force the Zionists to find some other source of blood money to replace their loss.

The effect decribed by him is called “Halo Effect” in psychology. It’s a well known effect, used in many different ways to manipulate people. Most of the time it is used in public schools, where young children have to argue for the opposite site. This leaves them with troubled minds and this is exactly what it is meant for – right from the beginning. It’s also interesting that many of the teachers themselves are not aware, how confusing and damaging this practice is to the children’s brain.

Have a look at the site below – and scroll down the LEFT hand side margin right to the bottom – where you see the word ‘Appendix’. Then click on ‘Appendix’.

It carefully records and lists all the individuals who took over Russia and it’s government in 1917 – after the jewish bolshevik coup d’etat. Those individuals then ordered the massed killing of 20 MILLION Russians who refused to renounce Christianity and ‘embrace’ their form of atheism. Don’t expect any less from the new breed now infecting and conquering the US government offices.

Each individual has been given their origin and religious denomination. I will also post this on Jimmie Dean’s article about the Christian Leaders criticizing the israel entity.

I have met a lot in my time blogging for Palestine and human rights. They are not interested in facts, just their myths, playing the victim, name calling and drowning you out. That is how they defend the indefensible.

This article has been doing the rounds for a while on the internet. It is not a VT exclusive.

A generic shill confession seeded out to sow dissent. Since it’s not even qualified if this schmuck actually proffered this bullshit diatribe to VT, or it just got picked up out of the ether, it’s not even good filler material. Would have been nice if who ever edited it here put their name to it so I could ask WTF!

Gee Gordon, I didn’t know you let anyone post articles. I’d like to post my essay on the Pheromone Factor. In essence it strives to theorize the increasing insanity in today’s world being directly related to a pheromone contained in human farts. It posits that when a certain PPM threshold in the atmosphere is reached a global pogrom ensues. It’s been responsible for at least 4 prior civilizational collapses IMO!

What are you like the VT bouncer? Name calling? Really, what are you in like third grade? I realize you are projecting your pathetic life in the pages of VT but to say that I am exposed by someone other than yourself is so pathetic.

TJ, are you like the self-proclaimed color commentator of VT? I have seen you direct the commentation of the responses numerous times. And Dean, I posted my real name in the profiles and the info about myself. Usually the one calling a shill is usually a shill, paraphrased from Duff himself.
